In general, all Emissions Guidelines
standards require initial notifications,
performance tests, and periodic reports
by the owners/operators of the affected
facilities. They are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and
duration of any startup, shutdown, or
malfunction in the operation of an
affected facility, or any period during
which the monitoring system is
inoperative. These notifications, reports,
and records are essential in determining
compliance with 40 CFR part 60,
subpart DDDD.
Form numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Owners and operators of commercial
and industrial solid waste incineration
units.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart
DDDD).
Estimated number of respondents: 78
(total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally, semiannually, and
annually.
Total estimated burden: 10,400 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $11,200,000 (per
year), which includes $10,000,000 in
annualized capital/startup and/or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is an
adjustment increase in the estimated
burden cost and number of responses.
The adjustment increase in burden from
the most-recently approved ICR is due
to an increase in the number of sources
anticipated to remain subject to the
provisions of Subpart DDDD since the
last ICR renewal period, based on an
inventory maintained by OAQPS.
Specifically, the prior ICR assumed that
a number of units in the incinerator
subcategory would shut down based on
amendments to the rule. However, a
recent inventory of sources indicates
that these incinerators remain in
operation, and also identifies additional
facilities with units in the small remote
incinerators subcategory not previously
included in the inventory. The
adjustment increase in burden is due to
more accurate estimates of existing
sources. In addition, the burden hours
were increased as a result of accounting
for burden for each respondent to
refamiliarize themselves with regulatory
requirements each year.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.

Abstract: The National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
(NESHAP) for Coal- and Oil-Fired
Electric Utility Steam Generating Units
(40 CFR part 63, subpart UUUUU) apply
to each individual or group of two or
more new, reconstructed, or existing
electric utility steam generating units
(EGUs) within a contiguous area and
under common control. An EGU is
defined as a fossil fuel-fired combustion
unit of more than 25 megawatts electric
(MWe) that serves a generator that
produces electricity for sale, or a fossil
fuel-fired unit that cogenerates steam
and electricity and supplies more than
one-third of its potential electric output
capacity and more than 25 MWe output
to any utility power distribution system
for sale. New facilities include those
that commenced construction or
reconstruction after the date of proposal.
In general, all NESHAP standards
require initial notifications,
performance tests, and periodic reports
by the owners/operators of the affected
facilities. They are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and
duration of any startup, shutdown, or
malfunction in the operation of an

affected facility, or any period during
which the monitoring system is
inoperative. These notifications, reports,
and records are essential in determining
compliance with 40 CFR part 63,
subpart UUUUU.
Form numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Owners and operators of coal- and oilfired EGUs.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR 63, Subpart
UUUUU).
Estimated number of respondents:
322 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally, and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 284,000
hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5
CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $132,000,000
(per year), which includes $104,000,000
in annualized capital/startup and/or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is an
adjustment decrease in the total
estimated burden as currently identified
in the OMB Inventory of Approved
Burdens. This change is not due to any
program changes. The overall decrease
in the burden and cost estimates
occurred due to more accurate estimates
of existing and anticipated new sources.
Additionally, there is an adjustment
increase in the capital/start-up and
O&M costs from the previous ICR. The
prior ICR inadvertently removed O&M
costs for existing sources, while this ICR
reincorporates O&M costs for existing
respondents.
